All The Lost Souls

James Blunt All The Lost Souls Lyrics
1.1973

Simona
You're getting older
Your journey's been
Etched on your skin
Simona
Wish i have known that
What seemed so strong
Has been and gone
I will call you up every saturday night
And we both stayed up 'til the morning light
And we sang 'here we go again'
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
When nineteen seventy three
Singing 'here we go again'
Simona
Wish i was sober
So i could see clearly now
The rain has gone
Simona
I guess it's over
My memory plays our tune
The same old song
I will call you up every saturday night
And we both stayed up 'til the morning light
And we sang 'here we go again'
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
When nineteen seventy three
Singing 'here we go again'
(Music)
I will call you up every saturday night
And we both stayed up 'til the morning light
And we sang 'here we go again'
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
When nineteen seventy three
Singing 'here we go again'
I will call you up every saturday night
And we both stayed up 'til the morning light
And we sang 'here we go again'
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
When nineteen seventy three
Singing 'here we go again'
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
When nineteen seventy three


2.One Of The Brightest Stars

One day your story will be told
One of the lucky ones who've made his name
One day they'll make you glorious
Beneth the lights of your deserved fame
And it all comes round
Once in a lifetime like it always does
Everybody loves you cause you've taken a chance
Out on a dance to the moon, too soon
And they'll say told ya so
we were the ones who saw you first of all
we always knew that you were one of the brightest stars
One day they'll tell you that you've changed
Though they're the ones who seem to stop and stare
One day you'll hope to make the grave
Before the papers chose to send you there
And it all comes round
Once in a lifetime like it always does
Nobody loves you cause you've taken a chance
Out on a dance to the moon, too soon
And they'll say told ya so
we were the ones who saw you first of all
we always knew that you were one of the brightest stars
And they'll say told ya so
we were the ones who saw you first of all
we always knew that you were one of the brightest stars


3.I'll Take Everything

Oooo these feet
Carry me far
Oh my body
Oh so tired
Mouth is dry
Hardly speak
Holy spirit
rise in me
Oooo I swear
Forever is just a minute to me
And I'll take everything
Mmmm mmm mmmm
In this life
I'll join every one
Oooo when I die
Have my body
Have my mind
Have my coat
Take my time
These I borrowed
Borrowed so far
Turn to dust
Fall apart
Oooo I swear
Forever is just a minute to me
And I'll take everything
Mmmmm mmmm mmmm
In this life
I'll join every one
Oooo and then decide
Cause all men die
Cause all men die
And I'll take everything
Mmmm mmm mmm
In this life
I'll join every one
Ooooo Since I'm gonna die
And I'll take everything
Mmmm mmm mmm
In this life
I'll join every one
Cause all men die


4.Same Mistake

So while I'm turning in my sheets
And once again, I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go
Hello, hello
There is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy but
My heart is heavy, does it show
I lose the track that loses me
So here I go
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
And so I sent some men to fight,
And one came back at dead of night,
said 'Have you seen my enemy?'
said 'he looked just like me'
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice,
Give me reason, but don't give me choice,
Cos I'll just make the same mistake again,
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk and not just speak
Don't buy the promises 'cause
There are no promises I keep,
and my reflection troubles me
so here I go
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice,
Give me reason, but don't give me choice,
Cos I'll just make the same mistake
I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice,
Give me reason, but don't give me choice,
Cos I'll just make the same mistake again
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
So while I'm turning in my sheets
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
And once again, I cannot sleep
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
Walk out the door and up the street
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
Look at the stars
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
Look at the stars, falling down,
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
And I wonder where,
oo oooooo ooo ooo oo oooo...
did I go wrong.


5.Carry You Home

Trouble is her only friend, and he's back again,
Makes her body older, than it really is,
She says its high time she went away,
No ones got much to say in this town,
Trouble is the only way is down, down, down,
As strong as you are, tender you know
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I Know what it means, and
I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home
If she had wings she would fly away
And another day, god will give her some
Trouble is the only way is down, down, down
As strong as you are, tender you know
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I Know what it means, and
I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home
And they're all so pretty in New York City tonight
And someone's little girl was taken from the world tonight
Under the stars and stripes
As strong as you are, tender you know
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I Know what it means,
I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home
As strong as you are, tender you know
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I Know what it means,
I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home


6.Give Me Some Love

Me and my guitar play my way
It makes them frown
A little pieces by the high way
Break me down
Money's not a hardest stone
I am only skin and bone now
Now a little pieces, little pieces of my own
Why don't you give me some love?
i've take 'em shake lot of drown
i'm so tired of never fixing the paid
valia said to me
i'll take you seriously
and we'll come back of someone else
who's better than yourself
Many faces at the door way
All hang around
Watch me fighting in the whole way but
Made no sounds
So standing all alone
And I'm only skin and bone
So many faces but they all look out for that
Why don't you give me some love?
i've take 'em shake lot of drown
i'm so tired of never fixing the paid
valia said to me
i'll take you seriously
and we'll come back of someone else
who's better than yourself
Why don't you give me some love?
i've take 'em shake lot of drown
i'm so tired of never fixing the paid
valia said to me
i'll take you seriously
and we'll come back of someone else
who's better than yourself
And someday soon they'll drop the bomb
and let it all out someday
I know that someday soon we'll all be gone
so let it all out
let it all out
today
And give me some love
yeah give me some love
come on give me some love
today


7.I Really Want You

Many prophets preach on bended knee
Many clerics wasted wine
Through those bloody sheets
On those cardboard streets
I have wasted time
Are there silver shores on paradise?
Can I come in from the cold?
I killed a man in a far away land
My enemy untold
I really want you to really want me
But I really don't know if you can do that
I know you want to know what's right
But I know it's so hard for you to do that
And time's running out as often it does
And often dictates that you can't do that
If they can't break this feeling inside
That's burning up through my veins
I really want you
I really want you
I really want you now
No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart
I really want you
I really want you
Is a poor man rich in solitude?
Or when mother earth complained
Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but
Lady luck for rain
They say a million people bow and scream
To an effigy of gold
As so life begin
And the ship we're in
And history unfold
I really want you to really want me
But I really don't know if you can do that
I know you want to know what's right
But I know it's so hard for you to do that
And time's running out as often it does
And often dictates that you can't do that
If they can't break this feeling inside
That's burning up through my veins
I really want you
I really want you
I really want you now
No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart
No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart


8.Shine On

are they calling for our last dance?
I see it in your eyes~ ~ ~
in your eyes...
same old molds forms and you know that
I could use the same old lines~ ~ ~
but i'll sing
shine on
just shine on
close your eyes and they'll all be gone
they can scream and shout that they've been sold out
but it paved the cloud that we're dancing on
so shine on, just shine on
with your smile just as bright as the sun
cause they're all just slaves ,to the gods they've made
but you and I, just shone, just shone

and when silence greets my last goodbye
the words I need are in your eyes~ ~ ~
and I'll sing...
shine on, just shine on
close your eyes and they'll all be gone
they can scream and shout that they've been sold out
but it paved the cloud that we're dancing on
so shine on, just shine on
with your smile just as bright as the sun
cause they're all just slaves to the gods they've made
but you and I just shone, just shone, just shone

so shine on, just shine on
close your eyes and they'll all be gone
they can scream and shout that they've been sold out
but it paved the cloud that we're dancing on
so shine on, just shine on
with your smile just as bright as the sun
cause they're all just slaves to the gods they've made
but you and I just shone, just shone


9.Annie

Annie, you had your dream on the bright lights
I thought I saw your photograph
and its such a laugh, in a magazine
Did it all come true?


then Annie, you were made for the big time
They said you were a star to be
In the NME
But the walls came tumbling down down, they go down on me


Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you


Annie, would it be nice to be recognized?
Did you practise your autograph?
But then no one's asked
And it's such a shame
Your dreams are crumbling


Annie, why aren't you big in limelight?
'Cause I thought that you said you'd be
A celebrity several years ago
But it all came tumbling down down, they go down on me


Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you


Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you


Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you


10.I Can't Hear The Music

Is it a warning?
Is it an evil sign?
Is it a people
who have lost their mind?
Is it the darkness?
Is it a man resigned?
Is it a best friend
leaving you behind?
This is never gonna stop.
They will never let you go.
You're in a rush.
They don't care enough.
'Cause their lives are very slow.
Time is ticking on.
Too long to fake your smile.
But then you sold your soul for a leading role
So wear it for a while.
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own.
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
Will play out one last song
Before the sun goes down.
And is it evil?
Should it really make you sick?
Is now the time that you realize
you'd better get out quick?
Time is ticking on.
Too long to fake your smile.
But then you sold your soul for a leading role
So wear it for a while.
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own.
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
Will play out one last song
Before the sun goes down.
And there she goes
And there she goes
So 'round you'll see me run
'Cause Billy's got himself a gun
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
'Cause it's strange and new
So 'round you'll see me run
'Cause Billy's got himself a gun
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
'Cause it's strange and new
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance
